Ugh, in Glen Burnie a husband and wife, aged 62 and 58, were found shot to death in their home following some kind of murder and/or suicide situation. (His name was Dick Boner ?! ... is that for real?)

They say that Manhattan's safer than Baltimore, but that wasn't the case for Baltimorean Sheria Guster, 25, who was shot during a drive-by in the 1200 block of Broadway.

Somewhere in Carroll County, sticky-figered hicks have relieved their neighbors of three show-quality St. Croix lambs, two Sullivan's Show Supply Air Express II cattle blow-dryers, a red 1991 Honda TRX-200 ATV, a tv set, fishing tackle and some good old-fashioned cash.

This record of drug arrests in Washington County shows how much more seriously judges take the white drugs (as opposed to the weed kind) there.

Along with the usual thefts and crack, there's also flaming toilet paper rolls, stolen diamonds and a 16-year-old working undercover to bust the CVS in the Anne Arundel County blotter.
